It seems my inbox of late has been filling up with introductions, offers, and promotions of the new fall fashions. I, however, am very much present in the summer and plan to savor every last second of it.

I just love the fresh simplicity of Tortilla Girl's handmade offerings–ideal for celebrating the remaining 47 days of summer in style and comfort.

I'm with you! Between the fall fashions, the back to school sales that started in July and the Halloween candy that should appear any minute now, I'm disgusted with our culture's constant pressure for the "next" thing, "next" season, "next" whatever. Aaargh! Can we stop and enjoy today please?

PS thanks for stopping by my house tour. The bed was a big splurge - I spent last year's vacation $ on it since the vaca never materialized due to a little surgery. I figured I could at least recuperate in style, and then some. Best purchase ever! Plus the old bed was from my former marriage and had bad ju-ju.
